One of the perks of being a flight attendant is the Staff Travel benefits! Whereas you’d normally pay sometimes over £1000 for a flight ticket, a Cabin Crew member, or someone who just works for the industry, can get a ticket for standby Travel for around £150! in fact, when I first started it was £26 and that included a free upgrade to 1st class!

Cabin Crew like to see the world, and using the benefits of Staff Travel you can reach every corner! But sometimes you don’t always make the right choices, and in today’s story we find out what happens when you have no money, no plans, and think at one point that you have no hope...

This has got to be one of the funniest true stories we've had to date! The tale of a flight attendant, on a layover in Japan. Where karaoke, toxically strong drinks and flight crews from all over the world collide!

Hear about the magical land of Narita. Famous for it's karaoke and influx of flight crews. Jet lag means the crew are full of energy at night and it frequently ends in chaos! But this story ends in a way that no one was expecting...

When the worst happens to a passenger. The crew’s training kicks in.

A lot of the stories we tell on The Red Eye Podcast, are outrageous, funny and sometimes a little naughty. But the Flight Attendants role is so much more than that, and we're here to show all aspects of the life of cabin crew, including the heartbreaking ones.

This story is from our host, Ally.

Flight attendants are not just there to serve the food and drinks. The main role of the flight attendant is to ensure the safety of the aircraft and it's passengers. They are the police, the firefighters, and the first responders. They are trained to save lives and have the equipment onboard to assist them.

This story involves CPR, and may be traumatic for some.

When you have the best time downroute but never know who is watching!

The long Caribbean trips used to be a favourite among cabin crew and pilots. A few uninterrupted days of sun, sea and rum punch by the pool! Some flight attendants would use the opportunity to relax, sunbathe, explore the island. And some use the time to go on one of the infamous catamaran trips. Where the whole crew would commandeer a catamaran and go on a day of snorkelling and shenanigans!

So this is one of those stories! A junior crew member gets to go on his very first flight to St Lucia, and is excited to get involved with the fun! But the problem with the small islands is that you are bound to run into passengers sometimes. Even if you're out at sea...

I don't often get to publish my interviews with crew members, because so many people want to remain anonymous. Luckily for me, the guy with the MOST stories I've ever heard has agreed to let this interview be public! 2 of his stories have already been episodes - including this week's episode about the crew member being left alone in the flight deck....

A lot of the stories told on The Red Eye podcast come from days gone by. The 80's, 90's and 2000's seemed to be the prime time for mischief in the aviation industry. So we today we talk to Alex Chisnall. A British ex flight attendant who doesn't mind spilling the beans about his antics in the sky!

Alex is a podcast host himself, amongst many other things! When he launched his podcast "Screw It Just Do It" 6 years ago, two downloads illustrated no one listened
except his wife and mum. Today, it’s in the Top 1% of all podcasts globally, with 500+ episodes and listeners in 180+ countries.

He went from working as a flight attendant for Virgin Atlantic to becoming Sir Richard
Branson’s #1 business advisor at Virgin StartUp. Throughout his journey, he has had the
privilege of interviewing extraordinary individuals such as Steven Bartlett, Lewis
Howes, Jamie Laing, Fleur East, James Haskell, Lord Bilimoria, and the founders of billion-dollar brands like Lush & Ted Baker.

If you'd like to find Alex Chisnall (not if you're the bloke he got passengers to sit on though), you can find him www.podpreneur.co.uk, LinkedIn, & Instagram. and you can find Screw It Just Do It on Youtube, Apple Podcasts & Spotify.

It used to be that you only gave the job to man. Even if that man had no clue what he was doing!

On today's episode of The Red Eye, we go back to the 90's to tell the true story of a brand new cabin crew member who was accidentally left in charge of the Boeing 747 flight deck. We learn that the rules in the aviation industry were definitely a little looser back then, and some of the old boys were very stuck in their ways....
